The Market. 



Last week the weather was ideal, 

 yet the anticipated "good Saturday" 

 did not materialize. There were many 

 unsold flowers in every wholesale win- 

 dow and icebox, and the real reason fpr 

 the surplus developed in an oversupply 

 of chrysanthemums, which are earlier 

 and more numerous when compared 

 with those of other years. Many of 

 the flowers are magnificent specimens, 

 readily commanding $5 and $6 per 

 dozen. A great many brought $3 and 

 $4 per dozen and large quantities of 

 the medium grades were absorbed at 

 $10 per hundred. From that the price 

 dropped down to $50 per thousand — the 

 department store class. This week the 

 flood really begins. 



Boses will have to yield the front 

 row to the mums and stay in second 

 place until after Thanksgiving. There 

 already are several novelties and seed- 

 lings in the market. The popularity of 

 the American Beauty rose is again on 

 the increase. Evidently none of the 

 novelties or new varieties can take its 

 place. Prices are steady at the advance 

 and the quality once more is ascendant. 

 The score of new roses and novelties 

 also are improving in stem and size, 

 but prices still remain at the low quota- 

 tions of last week, and are likely to 

 remain there at least until November. 

 Some rose accumulations October 14 

 sold under $10 per thousand. 



Orchids are more abundant and prices 

 are falling. One prominent wholesaler 

 was shipping fine labiatas to a western 

 city, at $25 per hundred. There were 

 only a few perfect gigas in the market 

 and these were offered at from 30 to 

 40 cents each. There is no prospect 

 of an increase in orchid values. Gar- 

 denias still are limited in shipments 

 and sell at $3 per dozen down. 



Longiflorum lilies were firm at 8 cents 

 each. Few sold under this and no 

 break is at present indicated. Valley 

 holds up its head proudly, the best of 

 it, selected, bringing $5 per hundred. 

 There is no surplus. 



Carnations seem to be coming in 

 more slowly than last year and the 

 quality is not yet up to the usual high 

 standard — $3 per hundred is obtainable 

 only for the long-stemmed and selected 

 stock. There are plenty of tritomas, 

 but no demand; also cosmos, bouvardias 

 and calendulas — every one. of them
